    This is obviously a troll thread but just to contextualise a few of your key points...

    He’s done little for Chisora, Chisora’s career has been guided by Steve Goodwin these last few years. Hearn has only ever used him as an opponent.

    He’s made AJ more money than De La Hoya, Canelo has he???����

    WTF are you talking about������
    Chisora was on the Whyte card against a very credible but beatable opponent that helped relaunch his career. Who do you think set that up?

    Also don’t forget it was Hearn that helped him get the world title shot. Hardly a guy trying to sandbag the fighter.

    Dlh retired like a decade ago I’m talking about guy still relevant today and in Floyd’s case he literally fights every other year when he’s bored with retirement.

      He employed Chisora as an opponent for that fight he had options on Takam after the AJ fight. Chisora’s deal was negotiated by his manager at the time Steve Goodwin.
      Hearn has never got Chisora a. World title shot either, dunno where you got that from...

      Canelo has made far more than AJ as well.

        A manager is not a promoter don’t know if you are aware. Chisora has fought on multiple Hearn cards sometimes as the main event and gotten paid millions for doing so. Eddie has always done right by chisora

          You’re acting as if Hearn is the reason for Chisora’s success he’s NOT. Dereck is. All the money and success Chisora has EARNED himself, through promoting himself, his fighting style and being willing to fight ANYONE.
          Chisora was already an established draw in London when Hearn started putting him on cards, it’s not like Hearn took him from being an unknown quantity and made him a credible name in the UK. Ironically enough, it was actually Frank Warren who did that.
          He’s done that many times with fighters, Hearn has never really done that tbh, apart from when AJ who already had a huge profile due to the Olympics.

            Hearn has done more for boxing in the past 3-4 years than any other promoter.

              Despite what you think of Eddie he put his guy in the best possible position tonight against the biggest name in boxing and got his guy life changing money. In hindsight it was too easy for an elite guy like Canelo but on paper he was smaller, shorter, less arm length, less experienced against 168lbers.

                He's definitely better than Frank Warren who is more known for suing his fighters, crowd fights and for making awesome matchups like Anthony Yarde vs TBA, coming to a leisure centre near you.
